Prenzlauer Berg

Cobble stones and tree-lined streets barely scratch the surface of what Prenzlauer Berg has on offer. Overflowing with restaurants, cafes, bars and boutiques, the neighbourhood is just a short cycle from the city centre yet warrants no reason to leave. While Prenzlauer Berg is one of Berlin’s more gentrified areas, it still encapsulates the gritty charm that visitors and locals alike can’t seem to get enough of.

Mauerpark Flea Market

Arguably Berlin’s most popular flea market, Mauerpark is where one person’s trash becomes another’s treasure... or just someone else’s trash. Trinkets, eats and beats galore, the park is bustling every Sunday in even the worst of weathers. If shopping up a second-hand storm isn’t on the agenda, you can try your luck in the live karaoke bear pit, where large crowds truly favour the bold. Up for a Whitney Houston number, anyone?
